Down the pub - the thread about nothing and everything

[Grahamm]

VNA’s mansion has tall ceilings and heavy 1930’s coving – I need a brush that holds loads of paint.  The brush I’m using is over ten years old, but really, I need a new one.  Everything in Screwfix, Toolstation and B&Q is kind of light weight.  Won’t hold much paint.

For the ceiling, get yourself a roller and extending handle. I did my girlfriend's room with one of those and it was dead easy!

There was also a paint brush that would go on the extending handle, but I found it was easier to get up on a step ladder to do the coving than try to use the brush to do it.
